Field Pressures Pesek

Michael Pesek raised to 3,400 from under the gun with Josh Field and Jason Gray making the call in position.

They saw a flop of {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Pesek deliberated and fired 6,500. Field raised to 14,500 as Gray and Pesek both folded.

Field is up to around 120,000 chips.

Ewing Back in the Mix

David Ewing has doubled through Michael Binger once again. The last chips were all in on a flop of {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}.

Binger held {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a set as Ewing looked to be in trouble with his {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{8-Spades}.

However the turn was the {Q-Diamonds} and river the {7-Diamonds} to give Ewing the gutshot straight on the river to stay alive! Incredibly, he's now up to 21,500 with his head well above water now.

On a flop of {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} Chino Rheem fired out a pot-sized bet of 10,200 before Michael Binger re-potted. The table folded and Rheem decided this is it as he plonked his remaining chips into the middle. Binger made the call.

Rheem: {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Binger: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{8-Spades}{A-Diamonds}

"Two pair and nut flush draw" said Rheem however Binger had flopped the nut straight.

The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and river the {7-Hearts} and Rheem is sent to the rail in 7th place for AU$15,480, as Binger jumps to the chip lead with 126,000.

On a flop of {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs} Tony G committed his last chips into the middle against Michael Binger.

Guoga: {10-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Binger: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{K-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

Both players tabled big wraps as Guoga's two pair held the lead. However the {Q-Diamonds} hit the turn to give Binger the lead with a king-high straight. The river was the {3-Clubs} and Guoga bubbles as our final table is set.

The players are now taking a fifteen-minute break as they do a chip change-over to the "major tournament" style of chips and relocate to the feature table in front of the rail.

We'll have the updated chip counts for you shortly.
